The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 72 WHITTAKER LANE sales between September 1998 and October 2021 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2006 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
72 WHITTAKER LANE might now be worth an estimated £296,061.
This is based on house price inflation of 9.7%, between October 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
